## About Scorn

Scorn is a 2022 Action/Indie/Adventure game developed by Ebb Software that tasks players with navigating a nightmarish biomechanical world. Players explore through environmental storytelling, solve puzzles, manage scarce resources, and employ stealth to progress. The art direction draws from H.R. Giger's aesthetic, presenting a world that reviewers describe as alive and decaying. Critics note the deliberately vague narrative and the absence of explicit guidance, requiring players to piece together meaning from their surroundings. Grotesque imagery and gore punctuate an atmosphere players describe as bleak and unsettling. Scorn costs $39.99, runs verified on Steam Deck, and holds a 75% positive rating from over 6,500 Steam reviews.
